what kind of serious usage?
is it big diff on battery usage for cm7 and miui? brows.gif
*
emm..
Serious Usage for me..
means using it for a longer duration.
before this, i just keep flashing, sometime almost every 2-3 days..
trying different ROM

battery usage cant say much, but definetely latest CM7 last abit longer than MIUI..

1) i wish to used the phone as modem.. but some how is not successful.

2) how long is the battery last on the phone? i have it full charge sat 6am.. 1030am seems about 30% gone...

3) what are the must have software to load for the phone, so far i only have angry birds

4) still no official update for 2.2...

hi..i just get my Motorola Defy, 2nd only maa..
it's already rooted to Android 2.3.4..

when i check back, i can't found Motoblur (apps/icon/software..
is it normal.??how can i get back my Motoblur.???
*
emm. the main thing ppl root Defy is to get rid that slow MotoBlur,
maybe previous owner already flashed with deblur ROM since u said its 2.3.4

if u want to try back motoBLur (with its slowness) can flash back stock ROM,

check here.

use droid wall and block all the apps that u dont want to access the internet. that might help reduce a bit of network usage.

instead of juice defender, we can use the built in battery manager. set it to turn off data connection after 15 min of no activity.
*
yeah.. still remember that batt manager but dun have in my ROM..

anyone on stock ROM? can you guys pull out the swype apk and share it? i signed up for the swype beta but somehow keep hanging at the downloading screen. now using stock GB keyboard. pretty decent, but sometime, swyping is easier than tapping.

thanks a bunch!

Pls check xda under defy apps.. I take those complete swype update zip.. Works like charm

Hi, anybody experienced what looks like specks of dust underneath or within the defy's screen?

I sent it to the motorola center and they told me that its natural since their own service center model has this issue and its a design of the screen due to it being gorilla glass.

The specks are most visible under very bright light or under natural sunlight.
*
Not yet.. Hope it doesn't happen..

lol, i wont say beat la....as i mentioned, different user experience. some ppl like the fact that when they whip out their iphone, ppl will say, iphone wor...but whip out defy, ppl wont even see.....until you start streaming youtube videos with your phone in a mug of beer!!!

for me, defy is really a damn value phone. got ppl saying motorola regret selling defy at this price, thus trying to not really support it to make ppl migrate to atrix and stuffs like that. not sure true or not, but it does speak volume for the phone price/spec ratio. if you plan to get it, close eye get it. really worth it


Added on May 30, 2011, 6:21 pm

let us know, cos i dont think many ppl will want to move back to stock SEA ROM, unless of course, urgent need to claim something tongue.gif
*
Definetely..
try finding any phone with android that can match Defy® at its price ..

same as CSL Mi300.. no one can beat em icon_rolleyes.gif
